Classic and vintage vehicles present a distinct electrical challenge: modern replacement batteries are frequently oversized or over-specified for older charging systems designed around modest power demands. The Lucas LC037 Classic Car Battery addresses this directly, providing a purpose-built 12V 36Ah solution engineered for the electrical profiles of period vehicles that require reliable starting performance without the complexity of absorbent glass mat or enhanced flooded plate technology.
Built to Lucas Automotive's established manufacturing specification, the LC037 delivers 300 Cold Cranking Amps (EN) – sufficient cranking power for small to medium classic car engines – within a standard flooded lead-acid construction. Lucas batteries are produced to meet the electrical demands of vehicles across a broad range of operating conditions, maintaining consistent output across the service life.
The LC037 occupies a B1V case with physical dimensions of 245mm × 135mm – 200mm (L × W × H) and weighs 11kg. It features Terminal Type 19, Hold-Down Type B09, and Polarity 1 (positive terminal right). The cross-reference designation is 037, making it a direct replacement for vehicles specifying a 037-group battery. This battery is not suitable for start-stop vehicles.
This product is part of the Lucas Classic Car battery range. Related variants in the Lucas Classic Car line include LC038, LC027, LC048, and LC049, covering alternative capacities and fitment requirements within the same application category.
The LC037 is supplied with a 3-year warranty, providing documented assurance of service life under normal operating conditions.
Standard delivery: 1–3 working days within UK mainland. 30-day returns.
